Medical Expertise

It's hard to trust doctors sometimes. For one thing, you always have to second guess them. Extensive research and googling is required as they never actually tell you what's wrong or what's happening. Goodness I actually met a doctor once who refuses to discuss an issue with me until I do research on the topic! Hmmmm... Now if this was a free consultation (though I'm sure it goes against any oath they take as a practicing doc)... I had to PAY for the consult... And she's telling me to do the research first??

That was just one bad example. Needless to say, I never went to see the doctor again. :p

Then there is this other doctor that I met due to my allergies... He was uptight and... Shall I say it? Yes... He was mean. Kept on questioning me this and that and got really mean when I just wasn't sure of the answer. For goodness sake, if I knew it I wouldn't be seeing a specialist! But that's not the best part... He kept giving me weird medicines... And it didn't even help my allegies... Just made my skin really dry. The side effects are horrific too... Yes, doc I did my research. In the end I found out myself what was causing all the havoc with my skin...

So this just shows, medical expertise is hard to get. Even when you're paying big bucks to get the proper attention. Tsk, tsk...

What brought this on? I just cancelled my follow up visit with that good for nothing mean doc... :p

Now just gotta find another doc for this other problem... But that's for later... Happy wednesday peeps! Muah! :)
